5pm on Oak Park Station: the toy shovel in the dirt
A small toy shovel, stuck in a mound of red dirt.
Saturday, 27 September 2025. AFL Grand Final day.
At about 5pm, four-year-old August “Gus” Lamont was playing outside the homestead at Oak Park Station.
Police said he was on “a mound of dirt.” The ABC described him playing “in sand with a small shovel.”
His grandmother saw him there.
Oak Park is a remote sheep station about 40 km south of Yunta, in South Australia’s Mid North. Adelaide is roughly 300 km away.
It sits 45 km in from the Barrier Highway. The only ways in are two dirt roads that need four-wheel drive, with gates along the way, some of them regularly locked.
A family member described Gus as shy but adventurous, and a good walker. They said he had never left the family property.
His grandparents, his mother and his little brother were all at the property that afternoon, police confirmed.
So how does a four-year-old disappear from a place like that in half an hour? (ABC-TIMELINE) (AAP-FC-2025) (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-14) (ABC-2026-03-27) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-21) (INDAILY-2026-02-05) (INDAILY-2026-06-22) (STOCKJ-2025-10-07) (AAP-2026-02-06)
5:30pm: the moment Gus Lamont was found missing
A kitchen clock. Half past five.
Police said his grandmother tried to call him inside at about 5:30pm.
As one account put it, she went to call him for dinner, and “he had vanished.”
Around the same time, Gus’s other grandmother, Josie Murray, and his mother got back from a shearing shed about 15 km away. They had been there for several hours.
The mound was empty.
Gus was wearing a grey sun hat, a cobalt blue long-sleeved T-shirt with a yellow Minion on it, light grey pants and boots.
Police later described him as Caucasian, with long, blond, curly hair.
Thirty minutes. That is the whole window.
And the sun was already going down. (NIGHTLY-2026-03-04) (NOWTOLOVE-2025-10-20) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-21) (INDAILY-2026-06-22) (ABC-TIMELINE) (STOCKJ-2025-10-07)
Torches in the saltbush: the family’s three-hour search
A single torch beam, sweeping through saltbush in the dark.
The family started searching straight away.
They kept going as the light faded. For about three hours.
Out here there are no neighbours to knock on. No streetlights. Just plain, scrub and low ridges.
Then they called the police.
Sources differ on the exact time of the call. One says 8:30pm. Another says about 8pm.
What they agree on is the gap: roughly three hours between the empty mound and the call.
By then it was fully dark.
Help would have to come from the sky. (NOWTOLOVE-2025-10-20) (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-14) (INDAILY-2026-06-22)
Infrared over Oak Park: the first night of the Gus Lamont search
A thermal screen. White-hot dots on a black plain.
That night, a police helicopter with an infrared camera flew over the station.
It picked up sheep. It picked up the homestead.
It did not find Gus.
The aerial search that first night reached about 12 km out from the homestead.
Later, police flew an infrared drone over the property on Friday and Saturday nights.
It was the same technology used in Port Lincoln in a separate case.
Heat cameras are built to find something warm in the cold.
They found nothing.
So searchers went back to the ground, and the ground gave them one small mark. (ABC-TIMELINE) (ABC-2026-02-07) (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-07)
The 500-metre boot print: the clue that wasn’t Gus’s
A tiny boot print in the red dust. A little flag beside it.
On about day three, searchers found a boot print roughly 500 metres from the homestead.
Superintendent Mark Syrus said it had a “very similar boot pattern to what Gus was wearing when he went missing.”
Police at that stage believed Gus had wandered off. “That’s where we are concentrating our search efforts,” Syrus said.
Commissioner Grant Stevens said police believed he was still on the property and had not been taken.
Then the print was checked properly.
Assistant Commissioner Linda Williams said it “was subsequently found not to be related to Gus.”
Some outlets still call it “the only physical clue.” Police ruled it out.
One print, gone.
So they sent in more people. A lot more. (ABC-TIMELINE) (NIGHTLY-2026-08-26)
Soldiers, horses and trail bikes: the line that crossed Oak Park
A long line of tiny figures, stretched to the horizon.
Trail bikes and ATVs. A drone. SES volunteers. Then police horses and water operations.
On 2 October, police released a photo of Gus. The same day, the Australian Defence Force joined the search.
The photo flooded police phone lines with theories, the ABC reported.
Assistant Commissioner Ian Parrott called it “one of the largest, most intensive and most protracted searches ever undertaken.”
He also said this: “No tangible pieces of evidence, such as footprints, a hat or clothing, have been located to identify any direction of travel.”
Medical experts told police there was little hope of finding Gus alive. Police scaled back that Friday.
Josie Murray later criticised the early rush of vehicles: “My God, they’ve destroyed any chance of tracking him.” She said a tracker arrived two or three days late.
On 7 October the case moved to the Missing Persons Investigation Section. Police said the family had “consented to every request we have made of them.”
Out on the station, nothing. Online, something much stranger was spreading. (ABC-TIMELINE) (ABC-2026-03-27) (NIGHTLY-2025-10-07) (STOCKJ-2025-10-07) (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-07) (NIGHTLY-2026-06-21)
Fake AI images of Gus Lamont: the kidnapping that never happened
A phone screen glowing in a dark room.
On it, a man carrying a curly-haired boy into a four-wheel drive. The caption: “Is this a kidnapping case?”
It was apparently made by AI.
Another fake showed a “reunion” with police in US-style uniforms. “A miracle in the outback.”
One Facebook page posted more than 20 items like this in five days.
AAP FactCheck debunked eight false claims. A “MIRACULOUS Return.” A “hidden cave.” A “SOAKED Backpack and Tiny Footprints.”
One giveaway in the kidnapping picture: an “unnaturally long finger.”
The pages appeared to be engagement-bait run by users in Vietnam.
A law lecturer warned of “emotional harm and distress” to the family.
Meanwhile, the real search was about to start again, under a new name. (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-11) (AAP-FC-2025)
Taskforce Horizon: a second search in 36-degree heat
A fence-post thermometer, reading 36.
On 14 October 2025, Commissioner Stevens announced Taskforce Horizon, a team of 12 specialists.
About 80 ADF personnel joined a renewed search over a bigger area.
Police said it was “not based on new information.” There was “nothing to suggest foul play.”
From 13 to 16 October, searchers covered 95 square kilometres on foot.
They worked from sunrise to midday, in 36-degree heat and strong northerly winds.
Dust moves fast out there. So do tracks.
Nothing was found.
So police turned to the one place a small boy might have gone and not come back up.
The water. (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-14) (ABC-TIMELINE) (NOWTOLOVE-2025-10-20)
Draining the dam: 3.2 million litres and nothing
A pump hose roaring. A dam emptying to mud.
31 October 2025. Police went back to a dam about 600 metres from the homestead.
It was four and a half metres deep. Divers had already searched it.
Police wanted “to rule out the possibility Gus may have drowned.”
The pumps started at 9:15am, moving about 15,000 litres a minute.
It took about three and a half hours. In total, 3.2 million litres came out.
Divers went through the main dam, the holding dam and the weed beds.
“There was nothing of significance found,” police said.
Then they pumped the water back in.
If he wasn’t in the water, maybe he was underground. (RNZ-ABC-2025-10-30) (SAPOL-DAM-2025)
Six forgotten gold-rush mine shafts near Oak Park Station
A rope, lowered into a black hole in red rock.
On 24 November 2025, police announced a search of six mine shafts, 5.5 to 12 km from the homestead.
They were “uncovered and unfenced.” Police said they had not known about them before.
The shafts date back to the late-1890s gold rush. Some are up to 20 metres deep.
STAR Group officers went down.
“We are determined to explore every avenue,” Deputy Commissioner Linda Williams said.
Two days later, Assistant Commissioner Philip Newitt said no new evidence had been found. “We have to eliminate all potential areas.”
A family statement was read out: “Gus’s absence is felt in all of us, and we miss him more than words can express.”
Every hole checked. Every one empty.
But one person at the homestead had her own idea about what happened. (RNZ-ABC-2025-11-24) (ABC-2026-03-27) (ABC-TIMELINE)
The moved bedstead and tyre tracks: Josie Murray’s stranger theory
An old iron bedstead in the red dirt. Faint wheel tracks running past it.
This is not a police finding. It is what Gus’s grandmother Josie Murray said in a 2026 TV interview.
She said a heavy bedstead looked as if it had been moved. “A child would not be able to shift it.”
She said small wheel tracks ran past it and past the weather station.
She described them as coming from a “small tyre, medium-sized passenger type” vehicle that did not match anything on the farm.
She said she believes a stranger took Gus.
She also said he “had gone missing before.”
Police have said there is “no evidence to suggest that Gus has been abducted.”
And she had one more thing she had seen.
A footprint. (INDAILY-2026-06-22) (NIGHTLY-2026-06-21) (NOWTOLOVE-2026-06-28) (1NEWS-2026-06-22) (ABC-2026-05-28)
A tiny footprint on the dam bank: Gus’s, or a diver’s?
A phone camera, pointed at one small print in the mud.
Josie Murray said she found a small footprint on a dam bank and photographed it.
Police told her it came from one of the divers.
She said it looked like a “ladies size-four shoe.” “He must have had tiny feet.”
It was not the only print near water.
Around 6 October 2025, a second small boot print turned up near a dam 3.5 km west of the homestead.
After a “thorough investigation,” police said it was not related to Gus.
Some accounts blur these prints together into one clue. They are separate. None has been tied to Gus by police.
Three prints. Three dead ends.
So how far could a four-year-old actually walk? (NOWTOLOVE-2026-06-28) (STOCKJ-2025-10-07)
The 5.47 km rule: why police say Gus Lamont didn’t wander off
A search map with a red circle drawn around the homestead. 5.47 km.
That number comes from the National Search and Rescue Manual.
Children aged four to six are found 95 percent of the time within 5.47 km of where they were last seen.
Police ran eight separate ground searches out to that radius. About 94 to 95 square kilometres, on foot.
Three dams were each searched twice. One was drained. A watercourse and six mine shafts were checked.
Over 20 days, 163 police and 230 other personnel took part.
Aerial imagery was taken out to 10 km and 15 km and run through an external AI company.
A former Queensland search coordinator called it a “textbook search.”
Inside the circle, nothing.
By January, police were no longer only looking outside. They were looking inside the house. (ABC-2026-02-07) (INDAILY-2026-02-05)
The January warrant: police search the Oak Park homestead
Police tape across a farm gate.
On 14 and 15 January 2026, police executed a warrant at Oak Park Station.
They searched the homestead forensically.
They seized a vehicle, a motorcycle and electronic devices.
During the search they also found a silencer and several firearms in a locked strongroom.
Police said that was an “unrelated matter.” It had nothing to do with Gus.
Josie Murray was later fined $10,500 for possessing the silencer. That case was also unrelated to Gus.
Police later said the January seizures had produced no further leads in the Gus case.
For three weeks, there was silence.
Then the head of Major Crime stepped up to a microphone. (ABC-TIMELINE) (INDAILY-2026-02-05) (INDAILY-2026-06-12) (ABC-2026-05-28)
Gus Lamont case declared a major crime
A lectern. A wall of cameras.
5 February 2026. Detective Superintendent Darren Fielke said he was “declaring the disappearance of Gus Lamont to be a major crime.”
Then: “We don’t believe now that Gus is alive.”
He said a person living at Oak Park Station “has withdrawn their support for the police and is no longer cooperating with us.” That person was now a suspect.
Police said they had found “a number of inconsistencies and discrepancies” in the timelines and in the family’s version of events.
Fielke was clear on one point: “Gus’s parents are not suspects in his disappearance.”
Police listed three scenarios. Gus got lost. Gus was abducted. Or someone known to him was involved.
They said they had found no evidence he had merely wandered off, and no evidence he had been taken from the property.
The next day, Josie and Shannon Murray said through their lawyers they were “absolutely devastated.” “The family has co-operated fully with the investigation.”
No one was charged. And the search went on, beyond the boundary fence. (ABC-2026-02-07) (INDAILY-2026-02-05) (AAP-2026-02-06) (ABC-TIMELINE)
A cadaver dog and fresh cement on a neighbouring property
A search dog, nose down on a newly laid cement floor.
In mid-February 2026, Taskforce Horizon searched Oak Park and nearby land.
Detectives checked a water tank and an outhouse on a neighbouring family property about 30 km west. Cement had recently been laid there.
They also searched a property at Grampus, about 24 km away.
An interstate cadaver dog went through both. A helicopter flew over Pualco Range Conservation Park.
Nothing was found.
Asked about an arrest, Stevens said it was “a fair assumption that we will be working on the disappearance of Gus for some time to come yet.”
In March, police said two family members were “only communicating via their legal representatives.” Shannon Murray’s lawyer said she “is co-operating through her solicitor.”
The ground was giving up nothing.
So police turned to people. Hundreds of them. (ABC-2026-02-18) (NIGHTLY-2026-03-04) (NIGHTLY-2026-03-05)
830 tips and 500 people: who was near Oak Park that day
A stack of tip sheets. A list of names, nearly all crossed out.
By six months, Crime Stoppers had taken 505 calls.
By late May 2026, police had received more than 830 pieces of information.
They had identified more than 500 people who were “in and around” Oak Park Station when Gus went missing.
Everyone contacted so far had been ruled out. Fielke said there were “not many people left.”
He said one of Gus’s grandparents “remains a suspect.” Police have not named which one. No one has been charged.
In June, Josie Murray said on national TV that police had told her she was their “main suspect.”
She strongly denies any involvement. She called the theory “ludicrous.” “We absolutely know we’re innocent.”
“The longer this goes on, the closer we get to not finding him,” Fielke said.
Then the weather changed everything on the ground. (ABC-2026-03-27) (ABC-2026-05-28) (INDAILY-2026-06-22) (NIGHTLY-2026-06-21) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-23)
After record rain: searching 30 km of creeks, bores and wells
A gloved hand pushing a rod into muddy floodwater.
In March 2026, record rain fell on the region. Police went straight back.
“I think you can expect that we will be re-attending regularly,” said acting Major Crime chief Andrew Macrae.
They “did not locate any evidence.”
Stevens called it “the most extensive search I think arguably in the history of South Australia.”
From 26 to 28 May came the 11th search. 17 police, three days, more than 30 km of waterways, creek beds, bores and wells.
Fielke said they wanted to see if anything had been “unearthed,” “shifted” or “altered.”
Nothing had.
With no evidence, the theories grew wilder.
One of them came from the sky. (ABC-2026-03-11) (ABC-2026-03-12) (ABC-2026-05-28)
Could an eagle have taken Gus Lamont? The theory experts debunked
A wedge-tailed eagle, wings spread against a pale sky.
In September 2026, Josie Murray suggested “the eagle aspect should be looked at.”
“It’s highly unlikely, but it’s not impossible,” she said.
Eagle expert Dr Simon Cherriman disagreed. Wedge-tailed eagles can carry about 5 kg at most.
“It’s physically impossible,” he said.
Police would not say whether they had looked into it.
On 5 October 2026, ABC’s Media Watch criticised Seven for giving “flight to a debunked theory.”
Fielke had already warned: “theories and conspiracies are not what we are looking for.”
The people who had said least so far were Gus’s mum and dad.
Then they spoke. (NIGHTLY-2026-09-28) (MW-2026-10-05) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-27)
Gus Lamont’s parents speak: the balance bike and the appeal
A small balance bike, leaning on a verandah post.
In February 2026, Gus’s parents, Jess and Josh, released a video of him riding it.
“Our lives have been shattered, and every moment without him is unbearable.”
They described a “beautiful, sweet and unique little boy” who “loved music, listening to stories and playing in the natural world.”
The weekend before he vanished, he had ridden a miniature train in Peterborough.
In September 2026, the public heard from his parents directly for the first time.
Jess called it “the most devastating and inexplicable event we have ever experienced.” Gus should have celebrated his fifth birthday, and his brother his first.
Josh said: “Someone knows what happened to Gus and may even know where he is.”
The same day, the state put a price on that knowledge.
A very big one. (ABC-2026-03-11) (ABC-2026-03-27) (ABC-2026-09-27) (ABC-2026-09-23)
$1 million reward and aerial ‘anomalies’: where the Gus Lamont case stands
A reward poster on a gate post. $1,000,000.
On 23 September 2026, Premier Peter Malinauskas announced a $1 million reward, which The Nightly calls the largest ever offered in the state.
It is for information leading to a conviction and/or the location of Gus’s remains. “Justice needs to be done here, one way or another,” he said.
Fielke said a manual review of aerial imagery, on top of the AI analysis, had found “some anomalies.” He would not say what. Those findings will decide “whether we return to Oak Park Station.”
Aerial searches have now covered more than 700 square kilometres. Interstate investigators are reviewing some of the taskforce’s work.
The reward brought more than 30 calls in its first days.
As of 31 October 2026, Gus has not been found. No one has been charged over his disappearance.
Police say one of his grandparents remains a suspect. They have not named who. Josie Murray says police told her it is her, and she strongly denies any involvement.
No public report shows police have returned to search the “anomalies” yet.
“Children don’t just disappear,” Fielke said. “Somebody knows something.” (ABC-2026-09-23) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-23) (ABC-2026-09-24) (NIGHTLY-2026-09-27) (INDAILY-2026-06-22)
